And
then
most
dramatically
,
as
Mason
intended
in
connection
with
every
point
in
this
trial
,
a
deputy
assistant
carrying
in
a
small
trunk
,
and
Titus
Alden
and
his
wife
and
daughters
and
sons
all
crying
at
the
sight
of
it
.
And
after
being
identified
by
him
as
Roberta
's
,
the
bag
and
then
the
trunk
were
opened
in
turn
.
And
the
dresses
made
by
Roberta
,
some
underclothing
,
shoes
,
hats
,
the
toilet
set
given
her
by
Clyde
,
pictures
of
her
mother
and
father
and
sister
and
brothers
,
an
old
family
cookbook
,
some
spoons
and
forks
and
knives
and
salt
and
pepper
sets
--
all
given
her
by
her
grandmother
and
treasured
by
her
for
her
married
life
--
held
up
and
identified
in
turn
.
All
this
over
Belknap
's
objection
,
and
on
Mason
's
promise
to
"
connect
it
up
,
"
which
,
however
,
he
was
unable
to
do
,
and
the
evidence
was
accordingly
ordered
"
struck
out
.
"
But
its
pathetic
significance
by
that
time
deeply
impressed
on
the
minds
and
hearts
of
the
jurymen
.
And
Belknap
's
criticism
of
Mason
's
tactics
merely
resulting
in
that
gentleman
bellowing
,
in
an
infuriated
manner
:
"
Who
's
conducting
this
prosecution
,
anyhow
?
"
To
which
Belknap
replied
:
"
The
Republican
candidate
for
county
judge
in
this
county
,
I
believe
!
"
--
thus
evoking
a
wave
of
laughter
which
caused
Mason
to
fairly
shout
:
"
Your
Honor
,
I
protest
!
This
is
an
unethical
and
illegal
attempt
to
inject
into
this
case
a
political
issue
which
has
nothing
to
do
with
it
.
It
is
slyly
and
maliciously
intended
to
convey
to
this
jury
that
because
I
am
the
Republican
nominee
for
judge
of
the
county
,
it
is
impossible
for
me
to
properly
and
fairly
conduct
the
prosecution
of
this
case
.
And
I
now
demand
an
apology
,
and
will
have
it
before
I
proceed
one
step
further
in
this
case
.
"
Whereupon
Justice
Oberwaltzer
,
feeling
that
a
very
serious
breach
of
court
etiquette
had
occurred
,
proceeded
to
summon
Belknap
and
Mason
before
him
,
and
after
listening
to
placid
and
polite
interpretations
of
what
was
meant
,
and
what
was
not
meant
,
finally
ordered
,
on
pain
of
contempt
,
that
neither
of
them
again
refer
to
the
political
situation
in
any
way
.
Nevertheless
,
Belknap
and
Jephson
congratulating
themselves
that
in
this
fashion
their
mood
in
regard
to
Mason
's
candidacy
and
his
use
of
this
case
to
further
it
had
effectively
gotten
before
the
jury
and
the
court
.
But
more
and
more
witnesses
!
Grace
Marr
now
taking
the
stand
,
and
in
a
glib
and
voluble
outpouring
describing
how
and
where
she
had
first
met
Roberta
--
how
pure
and
clean
and
religious
a
girl
she
was
,
but
how
after
meeting
Clyde
on
Crum
Lake
a
great
change
had
come
over
her
.
She
was
more
secretive
and
evasive
and
given
to
furnishing
all
sorts
of
false
excuses
for
new
and
strange
adventures
--
as
,
for
instance
,
going
out
nights
and
staying
late
,
and
claiming
to
be
places
over
Saturday
and
Sunday
where
she
was
n't
--
until
finally
,
because
of
criticism
which
she
,
Grace
Marr
,
had
ventured
to
make
,
she
had
suddenly
left
,
without
giving
any
address
.
But
there
was
a
man
,
and
that
man
was
Clyde
Griffiths
.
For
having
followed
Roberta
to
her
room
one
evening
in
September
or
October
of
the
year
before
,
she
had
observed
her
and
Clyde
in
the
distance
,
near
the
Gilpin
home
.
They
were
standing
under
some
trees
and
he
had
his
arm
around
her
.
And
thereafter
Belknap
,
at
Jephson
's
suggestion
,
taking
her
and
by
the
slyest
type
of
questioning
,
trying
to
discover
whether
,
before
coming
to
Lycurgus
,
Roberta
was
as
religious
and
conventional
as
Miss
Marr
would
have
it
.
But
Miss
Marr
,
faded
and
irritable
,
insisting
that
up
to
the
day
of
her
meeting
with
Clyde
on
Crum
Lake
,
Roberta
had
been
the
soul
of
truth
and
purity
,
in
so
far
as
she
knew
.
And
next
the
Newtons
swearing
to
much
the
same
thing
.
And
then
the
Gilpins
,
wife
and
husband
and
daughters
,
each
swearing
to
what
she
or
he
alone
saw
or
heard
.
Mrs.
Gilpin
as
to
the
approximate
day
of
Roberta
's
moving
into
her
home
with
one
small
trunk
and
bag
--
the
identical
trunk
and
bag
identified
by
Titus
.
And
thereafter
seeming
to
live
very
much
alone
until
finally
she
,
feeling
sorry
for
her
,
had
suggested
one
type
of
contact
and
another
,
but
Roberta
invariably
refusing
.
But
later
,
along
in
late
November
,
although
she
had
never
had
the
heart
to
say
anything
about
it
to
her
because
of
her
sweetness
and
general
sobriety
,
she
and
her
two
daughters
had
become
aware
of
the
fact
that
occasionally
,
after
eleven
o'clock
,
it
had
seemed
as
though
Roberta
must
be
entertaining
some
one
in
her
room
,
but
just
whom
she
could
not
say
.
And
again
at
this
point
,
on
cross-examination
,
Belknap
trying
to
extract
any
admissions
or
impressions
which
would
tend
to
make
it
look
as
though
Roberta
was
a
little
less
reserved
and
puritanical
than
all
the
witnesses
had
thus
far
painted
her
,
but
failing
.
Mrs.
Gilpin
,
as
well
as
her
husband
,
was
plainly
fond
of
her
and
only
under
pressure
from
Mason
and
later
Belknap
testified
to
Clyde
's
late
visits
.
